In this book, the author David Deutsch talks about the evolution of knowledge, its origin and discovery. The book starts from the basics about our understanding of the world and how we acquire knowledge and refers to an interesting conversation between Socrates and his students on topics like epistemology.
He later stresses how memes also encode information the same as genes. Further he elucidates about the body of knowledge for us as a species that is responsible for the culture. It is a great book which provides you a methodology to distinguish between dogma and scientific knowledge. The title of the book deciphers the fact that with the tools that we have in the modern days we can create infinite resources (knowledge and otherwise) as long as our pursuit of knowledge is honest.
